- EJBDeploy tool for pre-EJB 3.0 modules
This option installs
the EJBDeploy tool for pre-EJB 3.0 modules.
For transitioning users: The EJBDeploy tool was installed automatically
with the product in WebSphere Application
Server Version 7 and earlier. It is now an optional feature.
trns
Before
you deploy applications on the server, you must run the EJBDeploy
tool on applications that contain EJB modules that are based on specifications
prior to EJB 3.0. Running the EJBDeploy tool generates deployment
code for enterprise beans in the application. Beginning with the EJB
3.0 specification, the EJBDeploy tool is no longer required because WebSphere Application Server
uses a new feature called "JITDeploy", which automatically generates
code when the application starts.
Tip: Unexpected errors
might occur if applications that are provided with IBM WebSphere Application
Server, such as the samples, require the optional EJBDeploy tool for
pre-EJB 3.0 modules but the feature is not installed. If you deploy
and use applications that might require pre-EJB 3.0 modules, include
the optional EJBDeploy feature in all WebSphere Application Server
installations that will be used by servers running the pre-EJB 3.0
applications.
Tip: You can run the Installation
Manager later to modify this installation and add or remove this feature.
- Standalone thin clients, resource adapters, and embeddable containers
IBM thin clients and resource adapters
provide a set of clients and resource adapters for a variety of technologies,
such as JAX-WS, JAX-RPC, JAX-RS, XML, EJB, JPA, JMS, and more. An
embeddable container runs in a standalone Java Platform, Standard Edition environment.
For example, you can use the embeddable EJB container to run enterprise
beans outside the application server.
- Standalone thin clients and resource adapters
This option installs
the IBM standalone thin clients
and resource adapters.
IBM thin
clients provide a set of clients for a variety of technologies, such
as JAX-WS, JAX-RPC, JAX-RS, XML, EJB, JPA, JMS, and more. IBM resource adapters provide the
resource adapters for JMS.
- newfeatEmbeddable EJB container
This option installs
the embeddable EJB container.
The embeddable EJB container is
a Java Archive (JAR) file that
you can use to run enterprise beans in a standalone Java Platform, Standard Edition environment.
You can run enterprise beans using this embeddable container outside
the application server. The embeddable EJB container is a part of
the EJB 3.1 specification and is primarily used for unit testing enterprise
beans business logic.
Tip: You can run the Installation Manager later to
modify this installation and add or remove these features.
- Sample applications
This option installs the sample applications
for learning and demonstration environments.
The samples include
both source code files and integrated enterprise applications that
demonstrate some of the latest Java (TM)
Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
and WebSphere technologies.
The samples are recommended for installation to learning and demonstration
environments, such as development environments. However, they are
not recommended for installation to production application server
environments.
Tip: You can run the Installation Manager
later to modify this installation and add or remove this feature.
- IBM Software Development Kit
This
option allows you to choose between a 32-bit and 64-bit Software Development
Kit.
Notes:
- This option displays only if you are installing on a 64-bit system.
- This does not apply to Solaris x86 64-bit systems.
- You must select one of the two options.
- You cannot modify this installation later and change this selection.
